Omar Romero has been named program director and afternoon-drive host on Mega 95.5, which was smooth jazz outlet WNUA-FM 95.5 until Clear Channel flipped the format to Spanish contemporary last month. He's set to begin Monday.

Born in El Salvador but raised in Houston, Romero comes to Chicago from Clear Channel’s KLOL-FM in that city, where he was program director and afternoon-drive host.

Previously, he worked at Dallas' KEGL-FM, Albuquerque's KABQ-FM and as format director of Clear Channel’s HD Regional Mexican Format Channel. Before that, he was at Spanish Broadcasting Systems’ KZAB-FM and KLAX-FM in Los Angeles.

“Mega 95.5 represents a new generation of radio and there’s not a better person to lead our team than Omar Romero,” Tony Coles, Clear Channel Chicago's operations manager, said in a statement.
“His track record of success, passion for perfection, and enthusiasm made him a natural choice.”
